Costumes

The Devil May Cry series features bonus Costumes that change the appearance of a character. Usually, changing costumes also offers some changes in gameplay.

Devil May Cry

 * Dante - The default costume.
 * Super Dante - Super Dante looks just like regular Dante, however, he has unlimited Devil Trigger. Unlike later Super Costumes in the series, this one will regenerate Dante's health for as long as he is in Devil Trigger. Devil Trigger consumptive moves can be used freely as well, such as the Bangle of Time and Nightmare-Beta. During the first round with Mundus, Dante can also repeatedly use his dragon attack as many times as needed.
 * Sparda - Dante takes on the form of his father, the Legendary Dark Knight, Sparda. Unlike Dante, Sparda begins with Yamato and Luce & Ombra. In addition, his shadow graphic is that of Sparda's devil form instead of his human form. Unlocked after finishing Hard.

Devil May Cry 2

 * Dante
 * Dante - Default costume.
 * Diesel Dante - Complete the game on Normal Mode or enter cheats to unlock Dante in jeans.
 * DMC1 Dante - Complete Dante Must Die Mode. Dante's entire character model is replaced with that of Dante's model from the first game. As a result the costume does not appear during cutscenes, due to his DMC1 face model lacking facial animations. The Rebellion is physically replaced with the Force Edge, the latter's level corresponding to the former's. Along with the costume changing Dante's Physical appearance, certain aspects of the games audio is changed as well. Attacks with the sword generate the slashing sound effects from the first game, and shooting with the hand guns will generate the sound effects from the first game as well. Dante will use voice clips from the first game, and certain battles against enemies will trigger the DMC1 Battle Theme "Public Enemy", rather than his standard battle themes.
 * Lucia
 * Lucia - Default costume.
 * Lucia's 1st Diesel Costume - Complete the game on Normal Mode or enter cheats to unlock Lucia in jeans.
 * Lucia's 2nd Diesel Costume - Complete the game on Hard Mode to unlock Lucia in striped pants.
 * Arius's Secretary - Complete the game on Lucia Must Die Mode. She has access to the same equipment and attacks as Lucia.
 * Trish
 * Trish - By completing Hard Mode with Dante and Lucia, the player can play as Trish. She can be used in both Dante's and Lucia's scenarios and is equipped with Sparda's sword and Luce and Ombra handguns, both maxed out. Her sword attacks and punch combos are reused from Dante's Alastor sword and Ifrit gauntlets from Devil May Cry, though she has other moves, and can shoot her customary yellow lightning.
